Marriott Marquis Chicago will open this fall

The 1,205-room Marriott Marquis Chicago will
open adjacent to the city’s McCormick Place this fall.

Located in the city's South Loop
district, the hotel will be connected to the convention center, the country’s
largest, and will have 93,000 square feet of its own meeting space, including a
4,000-square-foot event space on the building's 33rd floor with views of Lake Michigan.

The 40-story hotel will be
designed by Gensler, whose hotel projects include downtown Los Angeles'
Ritz-Carlton Hotel and JW Marriott, the SLS Las Vegas Hotel & Casino and
the Grand Hyatt Incheon.
